It seems a good number of schools accept AP Bio credit as long as you take upper division bio courses along with it. Do these upper division courses have to be lecture + lab courses, or is only a standard lecture-based course okay?

Hi everyone! I was blessed to have one acceptance from that one interview that I have received in this cycle. I am extremely grateful and am living in absolute bliss. As much as I am enjoying this unbelievable event in my life, I have been making sure to see if I have anything I should complete...

For example Harvard says you have to have a minimum of 3.0 in all of your classes, but I have a few 2.5. Or half the schools require Anatomy, I have never taken this, should I still apply? Thank you for your answers.

Hi everyone, Hoping someone out there will have some insight into this situation. At my undergrad, bio majors were required to take an advanced senior lab. My lab was Microbiology. On my transcript, the course is named Microbiology Lab. It was a 3-credit course w/ 1 hour lecture and 5 hours...

Hi all! I am new on here so I am sorry if this isn't exactly how you're supposed to do things. I have a few questions about online courses and how they will be perceived by medical schools. I am planning on taking two online courses over the summer from UC Berkley. I want to take microbiology...

Math is not my area. It never has been. Obviously I know I'll need to be proficient enough to succeed in physics, chem, and two semesters of "college level math" in order to get into most med schools; but I'm honestly not 100% clear on what qualifies as "college level". College algebra? Pre...

Hello, I received notice that I still need to take an "English" course. They are quite strict on the course be titled English and not simply a course which requires intensive writing. Would be worthwhile to take an additional class to get an interview at this school? I'll add that I already...

Hey, Is true that medical schools prefer traditional classes over online courses? Some of the schools that I have been looking said that they don’t accept online courses. I don’t know if this is an academic integrity thing or just preference. I like online classes, I don’t have to worry about...

Hi, all! I'm 40 and never graduated college. When I was 17-20 I dabbled and half arsed some community college. Didn't get many credits and had a terrible gpa. I'm without skills, without a degree and just now coming to the realization that I'm not a kid and don't "have plenty of time" to...
